    Hi @markw1066,

    Thanks for the post!

    You can try using urlencode() on the variable where the apostrophe appears in the URL.

    For example:

    https://www.mysite.org.au/?page_id=3146&id=$$id$$&fname=$$firstname$$&lname=urlencode($$lastname$$)&date=$$birth$$&location=$$location$$

    For reference: https://www.php.net/manual/en/function.urlencode.php

    Let us know if that works. 😊

    HI Kim,

    Thanks for the response, unfortunately wrapping with urlencode() did not work. I checked the link you provided but could not get a solution that worked.

    For now I have added a ‘helper’ column to the source view where I have removed the apostrophes and now use this column data for the variable

    Peter is currently focusing on improving the new version of the plugin which includes improvements in handling links in columns.
